A-stad - Toegangswegen pleziervaart van en naar het stedelijk havengebied Antwerpen tijdelijk beperkt
Saved by uncleflo on September 23rd, 2022.
Er zijn verschillende manieren voor de pleziervaart om tot in de Stadshaven te varen: via de Schelde opschutten via de Kattendijksluis of via de zeehaven van Antwerpen komende van het Schelde-Rijnkanaal (Volkerak) tot in het Albertdok en doorgang via Siberia- en Londenbrug. Ingevolge de huidige technische buitendienststelling van de Kattendijksluis is de toegankelijkheid tot de Stadshaven en de daarin gelegen jachthavenconcessies momenteel evenwel ernstig beperkt voor de pleziervaart. Alle informatie over de toegang via de Kattendijksluis is steeds terug te vinden op de website van De Vlaamse Waterweg (https://www.visuris.be/ ) en zal steeds via deze weg gecommuniceerd worden.

Luxembourg makes all public transport free | CNN Travel
Saved by uncleflo on February 13th, 2022.
Landlocked Luxembourg is one of the richest countries in Europe, with the highest per capita GDP in the European Union.
Taking up 2,586 square kilometers, Luxembourg is roughly the size of Rhode Island. From the capital of Luxembourg City, Belgium, France and Germany can all be reached by car in half an hour. High housing costs, especially in Luxembourg City, mean more than 180,000 of its workforce commute from those neighboring countries every day. "Luxembourg is a very attractive place for jobs," explains Geoffrey Caruso, a professor at the University of Luxembourg and the Luxembourg Institute of Socio-Economic Research specializing in land use and transportation. But its "booming economy" and high concentration of jobs have led to congestion issues, he says.

Rocket Lab Completes 100th 3D-Printed Rocket Engine
Saved by uncleflo on February 12th, 2022.
You could call it one giant leap for 3D printing. California’s Rocket Lab just completed its 100th additive-printed Rutherford Engine as it targets cheaper rocket launches and space missions. The company has been on a tear since it created the world’s first 3D-printed, electric turbo-pump fed engine in 2013. Since then, it's launched 70 Rutherford engines to space with various companies—with the most recent one being on June 29. “The Rutherford engine has played an integral part in enabling Rocket Lab to make frequent and reliable launch a reality for small satellites,” Rocket Lab CEO Peter Beck said in a statement. “It’s a testament to our innovative design and manufacturing teams that we’ve achieved everything we set out to do in just a few short years; an entirely new type of rocket engine that delivers unmatched performance, boasts a proven record of 100% launch reliability and can be manufactured quickly and efficiently.” From here, the production is going to step up. The company plans to produce 200 Rutherford engines in the next year, on the back of improved 3D printing facilities in Huntington Beach, California. These engines will launch from Launch Complex 1 in New Zealand, and Launch Complex 2 at the Mid-Atlantic Regional Spaceport in Wallops Island, Virginia.

From The Rough Sex Defence To Revenge Porn, Hereâs How The Domestic Abuse Bill Will Give Women Their Power Back | British Vogue
Saved by uncleflo on January 16th, 2022.
Last month marked a landmark moment for women in the UK: the Domestic Abuse Bill was finally signed into law. The legislation, granted royal assent on 29 April to become the Domestic Abuse Act, aims to extend greater protection to the millions of women at risk of abuse every day - from physical harm to coercive control and sexual violence. It also targets revenge porn and will clamp down on claims of 'rough sex gone wrong' in trials. Hailed as a once-in-a-generation opportunity to improve how England and Wales responds to domestic abuse, British Vogue takes a closer look at what the legislation actually means for women. In recent years the use of the 'rough sex' defence - arguing that consensual violence during sex had caused a victim's death - has been on the rise, increasing tenfold over a period of 20 years. Labour MP Harriet Harman and Conservative MP Mark Garnier introduced an amendment to the DA Bill to get the use of the defence banned. Now, it's an offence to deliberately strangle another person or perform an act that restricts a person's ability to breathe - and it carries a sentence of up to five years.

NatWest to convert all debit cards to Mastercard
Saved by uncleflo on January 16th, 2022.
NatWest is to convert all of its debit cards to Mastercard, giving the card scheme a massive leg-up in its efforts to break the UK dominance of rival Visa. While this conversion may "give the card scheme a massive leg-up in its efforts to break the UK dominance of rival Visa", it does little to improve competion or result in lower card acceptance costs for merchants. While the interchange fee regulation caps fees at 0.2% for debit cards, the Mastercard card scheme fees are significantly higher than those of Visa so will result in much higher costs for merchants - and ultimately consumers. This is not good news. Also, as the interchange fees are capped, there is little incentive for card issuers to switch brands as their income remains the same - unless a 'behind the scene' deal has been done to sweeten the deal - which would (in effect) be contrary to the anti-circumvention clause of the IFR.

Coronavirus chart: see how your country compares | Free to read | Financial Times
Saved by uncleflo on January 12th, 2022.
Financial Times one pager for overviewing the growth of the Corona Virus. Governments’ stark daily figures on the spread of coronavirus are difficult to compare across countries, and may be significant undercounts. But the data needed to analyse the more reliable and comparable excess mortality metric are only available in a few jurisdictions, leaving these official case and death counts the best available data for much of the world. Deaths are somewhat more reliable, but remain problematic because countries have different rules for what deaths to include in their official numbers. The most notable difference between countries’ Covid mortality figures is whether or not they include deaths outside hospitals, particularly in care homes. Some countries like France and the UK have even changed which deaths they include during the course of the epidemic. For either measure, we use a seven-day rolling average to adjust for the impact of administrative delays to reporting new data over weekends.

“Wat staat er op het spel?! De beste update in 50 min”. — blckbx
Saved by uncleflo on April 10th, 2021.
Stapje voor stapje zijn we terecht gekomen in deze lockdown die binnenkort ongetwijfeld ook een avondklok krijgt, een fenomeen waarvoor we terug moeten naar de tweede wereldoorlog en die staat voor "groot gevaar". En omdat het allemaal zo snel gaat en we soms het overzicht kwijt dreigen te raken is het goed om weer eens alles op een rij te zetten en dat doen we met de Britse documentaire THE NEW NORMAL, oftewel het Nieuwe Normaal. The New Normal is een feitelijke documentaire van 50 minuten, die werkt als een geheugen opfrisser maar ook de 4de industriële revolutie – het geesteskind van Klaus Schwab, de frontman van het WEF nauw onderzoekt. De film laat haarfijn zien wat de 1% - de elite - te winnen heeft en wat de rest van ons dreigt te verliezen oftewel, “Wat staat er op het spel?! De beste update in 50 min”.

Kar-go: Europe's first road-worthy autonomous delivery vehicle - CNN
Saved by uncleflo on July 30th, 2019.
(CNN)If you're sick and tired of arriving home after a hard day at work to find yet another online delivery has gone AWOL, then a new autonomous delivery vehicle could soon be here to help. Kar-go is the brainchild of the United Kingdom-based Academy of Robotics, which describes it as "Europe's first road-worthy autonomous delivery vehicle." Using AI, this autonomous delivery vehicle offers customers an app -- similar to one used when ordering a taxi -- allowing them to choose when and where their packages are delivered. Earlier this year, Chinese startup Neolix also began mass production of its own autonomous vans, while in Houston last month, Domino's Pizza partnered with self-driving company Nuro to deliver takeaway food to customers' doors.

Australia's hypersonic plane for a new space race
Saved by uncleflo on November 17th, 2016.
It’s been a long time since Australia was a player in space exploration. One man wants to change that – with the help of a plane that travels five times the speed of sound. On 28 October 1971, the bullet-shaped Black Arrow rocket blasted into the clear sky over the desert plain at Woomera in southern Australia. This launch of the British Prospero satellite into orbit was the culmination of more than 10 years of rocket development.

Peru's Booming Cocaine Business Is Turning It Into Latin America's Newest Narco State | VICE News
Saved by uncleflo on September 8th, 2016.
Peru has long vied with Colombia as the world's top producer of cocaine, but has only periodically produced high profile drug lords. Gerson Gálvez Calle — alias "Caracol" or Snail — is one of these. Caracol sprung to the nation's attention late last year after news emerged that he was heading Peru's largest and most violent drug ring, known as the Barrio King. It came just a year after he walked free from jail in highly controversial circumstances. The steady stream of revelations about Caracol's sudden release, and the scale of his operations, have focused attention on the cocaine industry's deep penetration of the country's institutions, fuelling the sense that the country is slipping quietly but surely towards becoming a narco state.

Saved by uncleflo on September 8th, 2016.
Over the past two years or so, a very exciting race has been ongoing in the construction world: Who can be the first to develop a commercially viable concrete 3D printer capable of making homes? And the competition has been very tough, as interesting and promising projects quickly began popping up all over the place. Just a few months ago, even Dubai stepped into the race with an ambitious plan, and just this week Italian manufacturers WASP announced the creation of the world’s largest Delta 3D printer with an eye on concrete construction. But today, another team has jumped to the head of the pack, as the innovation-minded Lewis Grand Hotel in the Philippines, owned by entrepreneur Lewis Yakich, has begun work on a massive 3D printed expansion of the hotel. What’s more, they are already planning to follow this up with a series of 3D printed commercial homes. Do we have a winner?
